[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A dog on a plane wouldn't bother me but I was at the symphony the other night and a woman came in with a large dog who was wearing a service dog vest.  She was seated down in front where the dog had plenty of floor space.  I watched the cellist on the outside of his row cut his eyes at her big time.  It was hilarious.  At a quiet spot in the music the dog stood up and went to shake (you could sort of see the windup if you are a pet person).  It was wearing a ton of jingly tags with no tag silencers. The woman leapt on to the dog to stop it.  I could not for the life of me see what in what capacity it was a service dog.  The vest did not look as "official" as some I've seen. [/quote]

Service dogs perform all kinds of functions that you may not recognize - it's not just leading the blind. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10670951/

And there aren't any "official" service dog vests.

I flew two days ago and there were no dogs on my flight. I'd have loved to sit next t the dog on OP's plane.[/quote]

I'm the poster of this anecdote.  I forgot to mention that she brought ear mufflers for the dog so he wasn't bothered by the music but she didn't think about muffling the noise of the dog tags for her fellow audience members.  I'm not sure how you overlook this kind of thing if he was a real service dog.[/quote]

I don't understand your confusion. It would be great if she silenced the tags - but none of this indicates that this is not a service dog. Do you know what a service dog is? I think you might not. Do some reading - it's good to learn.[/quote]
